First Day of Practice Lesson at an Ancient Monument


Today marked one of the most remarkable days of our practical lessons, as we had the chance to visit Chor-Bakr, 🕌 one of the oldest and most sacred monuments in Bukhara. It was our very first experience exploring such a historical site together with our respected teacher, Muxiba Kamalovna. The atmosphere was filled with excitement and curiosity, and from the moment we arrived, it felt as if history itself was whispering through the air. 🍃



The complex looked magnificent — it included a madrasah, mosque, and khanqah, all beautifully built in the traditional architectural style. The tall, elegant structures reflected the deep wisdom and devotion of our ancestors. The yard was surrounded by tall green trees 🌳 that gave a sense of calmness and freshness. It was truly amazing to see how nature and history blended together in such perfect harmony.



Before our visit, we had already gathered some interesting information about the monument. 🧐 When we assembled around our teacher, each of us eagerly shared what we had learned. 🤓 Listening to everyone’s findings was both educational and enjoyable, and the proud smile on our teacher’s face made the moment even more special. 📚




One of the most enchanting sights was the presence of colorful birds 🕊️🦚 flying freely around the complex. Some even landed near us, as if welcoming us into their peaceful home. Their cheerful songs made the place feel even more alive and magical. We also came across a deep well filled with clear, fresh water 💦. According to local legends, those who drink from it may see their dreams come true — a thought both mystical and inspiring.


Nearby, there was also an old pool 🌊 with tiny fish swimming quietly inside. Its calm surface reflected the ancient buildings around it, showing how well the monument has been preserved through centuries. Not far from there, we saw several ancient graves, believed to be the resting places of holy and respected people. This gave the whole area a deeply spiritual feeling.



According to historical records, Shor-Bakr was first built after the death of Abu Bakr in 970. Later, it became known as Chor-Bakr, meaning “Four Bakrs,” because four descendants of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) were buried there.



Overall, this day was truly unforgettable — a journey not only into the past but also into the soul of our history and culture. Visiting Chor-Bakr filled my heart with pride, peace, and inspiration. I realized that history isn’t just written in books; it breathes within places like this, waiting for us to feel and remember it. ✨

Ancient and Eternal Bukhara🕌

 Practice💫 #day_5✨️ Location📍:Ancient and Eternal Bukhara Date📆:31.10.2025 Visiting the “Ancient and Eternal Bukhara” monument was a truly unforgettable experience for me. The place is full of history, culture, and pride. As soon as I entered the cultural center, I was amazed by its beauty — the wide alleys, green gardens, and the grand monument standing in the middle. When I looked at the monument, I felt deep respect for our ancestors who made Bukhara famous all over the world. The golden decorations and the words written on the monument show how much knowledge and wisdom our people had. I especially liked the hadith: “Learning is obligatory for every Muslim man and woman.” It reminded me how important education is for everyone. The statues of three generations — the family, the grandfather planting a tree, and the father building a house — touched my heart. They show that life goes on, and our good deeds will live after us. The big globe on top of the monument made me proud b...

 Practice💫 #day_4✨️ Location📍:Magoki Attori Mosque Date📆:30.10.2025 Today was the fourth day of our practical training, and it became one of the most unforgettable ones. We visited the Magoki Attori Mosque — a place full of history, wonder, and peaceful beauty, right in the center of Bukhara. It wasn’t just a regular trip — it felt like stepping into the past. Some places make you feel like time slows down — where the walls speak of the past, and the silence feels special. Visiting the Magoki Attori Mosque was one of those rare moments. I didn’t just look at history — I truly felt it. The soft light coming through the small windows created a calm, magical feeling. The air was quiet and smelled like old wood and stone. I stood still for a while, just breathing in the moment, feeling the history around me. What touched my heart the most were the carpets inside. They weren’t just decorations — they seemed alive with stories. Each one had its own design and soul. I imagined the many...

Chor Minor🕌

 Practice💫 #day_2 Location📍:Chor Minor  Date📆:28.10.2025 🏛️ A Visit to Chor Minor — The Charm of Bukhara’s Four Minarets Today we visited one of Bukhara’s most unique and charming monuments — Chor Minor. The name itself means “Four Minarets”, and as soon as you see it, you understand why. Standing gracefully in the heart of the old city, Chor Minor looks like something from a fairy tale. When I first saw Chor Minor, I couldn’t stop smiling. Its four blue domes shone brightly under the sun, and the architecture looked so different from anything else in Bukhara. Even though the building is small, it has a big soul — quiet, beautiful, and full of history. Chor Minor was built in the early 19th century by a rich merchant named Khalif Niyazkul. Each of its four towers is said to represent a different corner of the world. Walking around it, I imagined how it once stood as the gate to a large madrasah — a place of learning and faith. I took so many pictures here! Every angle look...
